POW/MIA's Will not be Forgotten

 

Our mission on the POW/MIA issue is to show the community that we honor all our soldiers and their families. We will not forget that many paid the ultimate price for our freedom. We want to educate the public that many families still wait for their loved one to return home. We ask that you join us in honoring these heros. Come out and show your support for the families that still wait for closure.
